We think you’re really going to enjoy this trick for making surface mount breakout boards ... This leaves an easy job of soldering the trailing side of the wire to a hunk of protoboard.

For most of us, soldering electronics means soldering on “through hole components,” that are large and easy to handle. However, when machines build components, they use “surface mount ...

But what about actually soldering surface mount components? Our solder paste is on order, so we had to test it on a pre-assembled board. It easily melts the solder joints on this chip. Conclusion ...
